Plot
At Wonder Studios ("If it's a good picture, it's a Wonder"), producer I.M. Stupendous is interrupted in his office by Daffy, who asks for an acting position. The producer quickly responds "No!" and breaks the fourth wall by stating, "Y'know, that duck's screwy!" The phone rings and Daffy pops out of it, saying "You're correct, absolutely correct!", pinching Stupendous's nose. Stupendous then phones Director von Hamburger (a parody of Josef von Sternberg) and orders him to finish the picture he's working on that day.

On the set, all the crew rushes to follow Hamburger's order for a close-up while he starts smoking a cigarette. Daffy then swipes and starts smoking the cigarette, spelling out Warner Bros. with the smoke ("Just givin' my bosses a plug", he tells the audience. "I've got an option coming up!"). Hamburger asks how the sound is, and Daffy whistles into the microphone, getting a bad reaction from the crew member checking it. The director orders the lights turned on, but Daffy has connected the emergency fire hose to them, so water gushes out of the lights and down on the set where the actors are. Hamburger quotes "It's ruined, cut!" Daffy then plants bullets in the camera. When the camera rolls on Hamburger's orders, it starts shooting bullets. Hamburger begins crying while stating "This isn't a gangster picture!" Daffy sympathetically gives him a gift, promises to stop being screwy, and walks away. However, Daffy then pops up out of the gift box, bites Hamburger's nose and starts jumping around.
